Mike Matheson Returns Against Former Team Saturday
Montreal Canadiens defenseman Mike Matheson (upper body) will return from a two-game absence on Saturday against the Pittsburgh Penguins. He will replace Jayden Struble in the lineup. Noah Dobson's arrival in Montreal has impacted Matheson's role on the blue line, but he remains a crucial piece for the Canadiens. The veteran leads the team in ice time, averaging 24:54 per game. He has logged 16 points (four goals, 12 assists), 39 shots, 69 blocks, and 22 hits in 32 games. In a matchup against his former team, Matheson will hope to avoid a season-worst five-game point drought on Saturday.
